Can Timerfly spot a mouse jiggler or an auto key-presser?

Yes, by itself. When someone’s “work” is made by a program instead of a person (a mouse jiggler, a key-pressing app), Timerfly marks it on their day and sends a Looks automated alert. On Pro and Business it’s on by default: nothing to set up. On Starter the time is still marked on their day, but no alert is sent.

1. 1Nothing to switch on. To change where the alert goes, or turn it off: Settings → Alerts & emails → Looks automated.
2. 2When it comes, open the person’s day: the time is marked there, with the reason.

Only owners, admins and the person’s manager see it. The person themselves doesn’t.

The alert only says that the activity looks automated, never how it was found, so it’s fine in a chat group the team is in.

It looks for what only a program does. Someone who stops to think, takes a phone call, reads, or walks away is never flagged; idle time is always just idle.

Timerfly never records which keys were pressed or what was typed.

It points you to the person’s day; it doesn’t decide anything, and their hours aren’t changed. Have a look before you talk to them.
